Janson Mancheski surprised the 2010 crime writing field by winning the prestigious Sharp Writ Book Awards with his novel The Chemist. Since then, "The Chemist Series" books have entertained fans of action, suspense, and twisty crime thrillers. In his new collection of short stories, Janson presents ten entertaining episodes centered around violence, survival, and death-flavored by the numerous times he's barely escaped his own demise. The Mystery of Choctaw Ridge solves the riddle of what happened in the 1960s mega-hit song "Ode to Billie Joe." She's Something Else, The Decoy, and About The Girls focus on innocent victims' fight for survival. Driving Highway 41, Tenderfoot, and Death by Hoe reveal how close to death we all are. Mighty Al and God's Daughter depict supernatural mysteries, and Murdered by Big Giant unmasks a well-known publishing corporation's ability to bully, suppress, and censure writers they deem devious and controversial. Caution: These tales are not for the faint of heart.

The Chemist blends chameleon-like into everyday life. He is charming, intelligent, and a sociopath. His liquid sedative allows him to kidnap any victim he chooses, day or night, leaving no trace or clues behind. Lt. Cale Van Waring heads the Special Crimes Unit for the Green Bay PD. Three female victims have already vanished, with one headless body recovered from Lake Michigan. There are no suspects, no crime scene, and no witnesses. Theories range from cults to witchcraft covens to serial killers. Yet, with no viable clues, the investigators grasp at any leads as they hunt for a killer who leaves no trace-one intent on committing a string of "perfect crimes." Now a new victim has gone missing. City leaders are frustrated, the police brass angry, and Cale's fiancé issues him relationship ultimatums. Following a spotty trail, can Cale and his partners hunt down an invisible killer before he strikes again? Or does the Chemist have a more sinister plot in mind?
